I think a ton of people fail to realize that your level of fitness plays a huge role in your level of skiing. Pro skier = Pro athelete.

how about leg and core strength? i think it's more useful for backcountry than park.....

and altough you don't really "carve" in pow, the motions are very similar to carving on groomers....;
